WE BELIEVE:
We at Roots belong to the "MIA"
(Messianic Israel Alliance) who believe that Jews and non-Jews are part
and parcel of Israel. Furthermore, we believe:
* IN ONE GOD as declared in the
She'ma (Deuteronomy 6:4), who is Echad (a complete unity) and eternally
existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy
Spirit, as written for us in Isaiah 48:16-17, Genesis 1:1, Exodus 3:6 and
Ephesians 4:4-6.
* In Messiah Yeshua's Deity as written
for us in Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1-4. In His virgin birth, as written for us in
Isaiah 7:14. In His sinless life and in His atoning death, as written for us
in Isaiah 53 and in Psalm 22. In His Bodily Resurrection as well as in His
Ascension and future return to us in Power and in Glory.
* That the Bible, consisting of the
Tenach (old covenant Scriptures) and in the B'rit Chadasha (new covenant
Scriptures) ARE both inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of
God as written for us in Psalm 119:89, Proverbs 30:5-6 and 2 Timothy
3:16-17.
* In God's eternal covenant with
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. We therefore, stand and believe firmly that
Yeshua was sent by God the Father to be Lord and Savior to ALL who
call upon His name, no matter what color, creed, or nationality they
represent, as we are ALL one in Him.
* And stand in full support with
the State of Israel and the Jewish people and hold fast to the Biblical
heritage of our forefathers. Therefore as believers in Yeshua, we believe in
keeping the Seventh Day Sabbath Holy and celebrate ALL of God's
feasts as they were given to us and were commanded by God for us to
celebrate.
* That faith in Yeshua is Holy Spirit
inspired and NOT man-made directed. |
